A Tribute Fund allows you to raise money with your friends and family to honour your loved one.
Kerry’s Story
When Ken, Kerry’s husband’s Grandad passed away, Kerry and her family were in shock. They had no idea why he took own life and were determined to create a fitting tribute for Ken and spread the message that Samaritans will always be there for you if you’re struggling.
Set up a Tribute Fund
Tribute Funds are created in partnership with MuchLoved to support the work of Samaritans. If you’d like to raise money for a specific Samaritans branch in memory of a loved one, please contact the branch directly.
What is a Tribute Fund?
A Tribute Fund is one central place where you can track how much money you‘re raising and share photos, thoughts and light candles for that special someone.
It’s an opportunity to remember your beloved in a meaningful way, whilst also helping Samaritans be there for people struggling to cope.
The impact of your fundraising
- £5 means that Samaritans can be there for someone struggling to cope
